The British Academy for Training and Development offers a training course on the Gates concept of modern maintenance, which is one of the maintenance systems that has encouraged organizations to adopt a new approach to maintenance that requires a dedicated management for maintenance. Maintenance of machines is essential for ensuring continuous production, improving product quality, and satisfying consumers. Technicians have been divided between supporters and opponents of traditional preventive maintenance systems. As a result of this division, Gates proposed a model and a foundational concept for a new approach to maintenance, finding that maintenance can be based on the condition of the machinery, its failure, or the extent of its use, with each rule and method for repair being applicable. He notes that there is variability in the rates of these types, to the extent that maintenance performed when a machine reaches a critical state has become the most frequently used. However, all these types agree on the importance of monitoring to determine when, where, and how maintenance should be carried out.

Target Audience for the Training Course on Gates’ Concept of Modern Maintenance:

• Supervisors of automated systems in factories.
• Employees in maintenance management.
• Owners of industrial facilities, as they will benefit most from understanding the importance of maintenance in their establishments to improve production.

How Participants Will Benefit from the Training Course on Gates’ Concept of Modern Maintenance:

Upon completing the course, participants will be able to:

• Identify the differences between Gates’ concept and that of corrective or preventive maintenance systems, as well as the common points between them.
• Understand the procedures for inspecting machines or technical systems and how to predict failures.
• Determine when to make a decision for maintenance based on usage by identifying the intervals between failures.
• Grasp the concept of condition-based maintenance and how to implement maintenance remotely using computers.
